C80 Time is the best antidote

Ding Zhihua ate the Chinese medicine and western medicine that he brought back everyday, he seemed to become thinner and thinner, and his mental state did not look too good. Although he was no longer angry at Du Ruiqi, and said something about getting divorced, he looked more and more like he did not like talking at all.

Du Ruiqi had once tried to persuade him to move back to her own room, but Ding Zhihua didn't say a word, nor did she make any movements.

After eating for almost a month, Fang Hepian secretly asked Du Ruiqi: "Has Zhi Hua gone back to sleep at your place?"

Du Ruiqi couldn't bear to see his mother-in-law's disappointed expression, but she didn't want to lie to her, so she could only tell her the truth.

After Fang Hepian heard this, she sighed and said, "This child might not have the courage to do so. Rui Qi, take the initiative. Ah, why don't you come over to Zhihua's side and sleep, okay? "

"I'll try." Du Ruiqi said, "Mom, I advised Zhihua to come to my side. He must have his reasons for not coming over, I don't want to force him. You know Zhihua's character. "

"Yes, I know. "However, listen to your mother. Take the initiative. The doctor said that he wants his wife to take the initiative and help him regain his confidence." Fang Hepian said, her eyes full of hope and hope.

"Alright, I'll listen to mom." Du Ruiqi said. She really did not want to disappoint her mother-in-law.

At night, after Du Ruiqi finished washing up, she took the initiative to go to Ding Zhihua's room and wait for Zhi Hua to go upstairs.

Ding Zhihua walked into the room and was shocked when he saw Du Ruiqi sitting on her bed.

"Why are you here? "Huh?" Ding Zhihua asked with an unfriendly tone.

"If you don't move in with me, I'll move in with you. From today onwards, I will be living here. " Du Ruiqi said.

"I tell you, you go back to your side at once. I don't need you here! " Ding Zhihua roared.

"Zhihua, listen to me, I just want to move over and take good care of you. After all, we are husband and wife, and I have this responsibility and responsibility! " Du Ruiqi said.

"I don't need your care. Leave." Ding Zhihua said.

Du Ruiqi remained seated and did not move.

"Let's go!" Ding Zhihua yelled as he pulled Du Ruiqi and pushed him out of the door.

"Zhihua …" The door slammed shut.

Du Ruiqi went back to her room and cried. It looked like she had taken the medicine for free over the past month. Zhihua's disease had not improved at all. On the contrary, his temper was getting worse and worse, and his body didn't seem to be as good as it used to be. Right now, she couldn't mention this matter at all, or else she would explode at the first opportunity …

If you have no power to change, then just endure it. Give everything to time, and time is the best antidote …

After this attempt failed, Du Ruiqi felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

Since it was the weekend, she decided to take Zi An to her parents' home to stay for two days to take a breather …

At the end of June, Du Huaqing was on break as well.

At night, Du Huaqing packed all of his clothes and books into two heavy bags. He was planning to return to the Du Jia Village tomorrow morning as soon as the holidays.

Du Ruiqi intentionally came down from the stairs and said to Hua Qing: "Big Sis will go with you tomorrow."

"Really? That's great! " Du Huaqing said happily, "Mom said that you never told her the last time you went home. When she came back from the fields, your cars were already gone."

"I was in too much of a hurry last time to go home. I'll stay at home for two days to accompany my parents. " Du Ruiqi said, "Is daddy still helping people build houses outside?"

"Yeah, he seems rather busy right now. I'm going home on the weekends, but I see that he went out very early and only came back in the evening." Hua Qing said.

"It's too hard, I advise him. Don't wear out your body." Du Ruiqi said, "You should go to sleep early, let's go together tomorrow."

"Alright." Hua Qing said happily, "Sis, will Zi An go?"

"Go, I'll bring him with me tomorrow!"

"Ha, I'm too happy, I can play with Zi An." Du Huaqing was so happy that he was dancing with joy.

What a child! Seeing Hua Qing's happiness, Du Ruiqi's heart also became happy.

In the morning of the second day, when school closed early, Du Huaqing came back early.

In the morning, Du Ruiqi had told her mother-in-law that she would take Zi An to see Grandfather and Grandmother, and they had already prepared things to wait at home.

Du Huaqing came back to retrieve their things, and the three of them rushed back to the station.

When he arrived at Du Jia Village, it was just time for lunch.

Yi Haihua was in the kitchen cooking, when she saw his daughter bringing her nephew back, she was so happy that she could not hide her smile. She hugged Zi An and kissed him forcefully a few times.

"I told you there's going to be a happy occasion today. Magpie would call out to you from the roof early in the morning." So it turns out to be my precious grandson coming. " Yi Haihua said.

"I haven't been back for a few months. I missed Grandma so much!" Yi Haihua looked at Zi An and said, "Your darling looks really good, more and more like daddy."

Du Ruiqi found it funny. Why does everyone like to say that?

"Rui Qi, hold Zi An. Mother is going to cook, cook some delicious dishes for my darling to eat! I heard the magpie's cry this morning. The one selling the meat came over and I specifically bought the meat and ribs. It just so happens! " After Yi Haihua finished, he handed Zi An over to Rui Qi and headed back to the kitchen happily.

Du Ruiqi let Zi An come down and play, and told him to bring him along. She followed her mother into the kitchen.

Home is still the most primitive earth stove to cook, burning straw, beanstalk and other firewood. Making a meal was quite troublesome. Living conditions are better now, and many rural families have used gas. Du Ruiqi had also recommended her mother to boil the gas. It was more convenient to eat meals alone and use a gas stove to cook.

However, Yi Haihua always said that she was already used to cooking like this. There was no need to trouble herself, no need to waste that money.

Seeing that her mother was still cooking like this, Du Ruiqi decided to bring back a set of gas canister and gas stove from the county to improve his mother's living conditions.

Du Ruiqi squatted beside the pit and helped add fuel to the fire.

Seeing that, Yi Haihua hurriedly got her up: "Don't do it, in a moment you will be covered in dust. Go out and bring Zi An back, I can handle it myself. "Hurry, hurry!"

"Mom, it's okay. The next time I bring you a gas stove and a can, it will save you the trouble of making a meal. " Du Ruiqi said.

"Don't waste that money! With so much straw in the field to burn, it would be a waste to get the money for the gas. Don't buy it! " Yi Haihua said.

"Mom, I see that a lot of people in the village have gas in their homes, so it won't cost you much. I'll pay for the gas, and I'll pay for the gas. Alright!" Du Ruiqi said.

"You child, is your money not money? That was hard money! Besides, how much will it cost for your brother to go to college in the future? It's not like we can't live like this. Decades have passed like this. Why waste that money! You better not buy it! " Yi Haihua said firmly.

Du Ruiqi couldn't win against her, so she didn't say anything more. But in her heart, she had already thought about it. Next time, she must bring over a gas container and a stove.

"Daddy won't be back for lunch?" Du Ruiqi asked.

"This period of time is very busy. There are a few households that are waiting to finish building their houses before reaping the harvest. They are always rushing to do it every day." Yi Haihua said.

"It's always like this. It's too exhausting. You have to pay attention to your body." Du Ruiqi said.

"That's right. When I go to bed at night, I will say that my waist is painful." I also advise your father to take a day off when he's tired! Now I'm going to let a child study, so don't work so hard! But your dad doesn't listen. He still goes out early every day and calls again at night! Sigh, I can't rest even if I have to work hard! " Yi Haihua said.

Yi Haihua busied herself for a while before she finished cooking lunch.

After the family finished their lunch, Du Ruiqi took a nap while Yi Haihua sat at home for a while before heading out to work.

In Du Ruiqi's memories, it seemed like it was the same for his parents. Other than not going out to farm on the first day of the new year, they would only dig in the ground for food the rest of the time. She didn't know why her parents loved the land so much. They tidied up the several acres of responsible land without a single blade of grass. The crops here were the best, and even the vegetables they grew looked even better than other people's.

When he was young, he went out with his parents to work. Du Ruiqi would sometimes be lazy and pretend that he had a stomachache, that he had sprained his ankle and that his hands were sore in order to escape from work.

Mom is very smart, always able to discover her disguise. Sometimes she would say to her meaningfully, "The early bird has a worm to eat, the diligent chicken has a bright mouth." Food would not fall from the sky, much less money. He couldn't be lazy for a lifetime! If you study hard, you won't grow your land and you won't be affected! "

Now that I think about it, although my mother doesn't have any culture, her words are very philosophical. Perhaps it was because he had tried the hardships of life too early, but only then did Du Ruiqi know that he had to study hard and wholeheartedly, with the intention of jumping out of the village and escaping from the countryside.

Just as the sky was about to turn dark, Du Ruiqi's father, Du Hejin, finally returned.

Du Hejin rode on an old Flying Fish bike and started to ring the bell from far away. As soon as he heard the bell, his family knew he was back.

Du Ruiqi carried Zi An and stood at the entrance of the courtyard to welcome her father.

Du Hejin rode to the door, one foot on the ground, both hands holding on to the brake, the car stopped beside Du Ruiqi.

Looking at his father's wrinkled face, Du Ruiqi felt sad in his heart. After a few months of not seeing him, his father seemed to have aged a lot. The construction of the house was done every day under the sun and wind. They stood at the top and bent over for a long time. It was no wonder that their waists ached.

"Dad, you're back!" Du Ruiqi called out, "Zi An, call me grandfather!"

"Grandfather!" Zi An called out sweetly. Zi An rarely saw his grandfather, so he basically had no impression of him.

"Good boy, good boy!" Du Hejin said happily.

He pushed the car into the house. After parking the car, Du Hejin washed his hands and face in the water well, pulled off the towel on the rope and wiped it. He extended his hands out and walked towards Du Ruiqi.

"Grandfather, hug the baby!" Du Hejin said.

Du Ruiqi handed Zi An over to her father.

Du Hejin carried Zi An with one hand, and lifted up one hand to caress Zi An's face.

Du Ruiqi looked at her father's hand that was raised up, and an unnamed sadness instantly dampened her heart, as tears blurred her eyes!

What a hand! His five fingers were covered with adhesive tape. The originally white adhesive tape had also been grinded to a black color. Furthermore, the joints had been turned up, making them look extremely dirty! Looking at those five fingers, almost all of them had cracks on them, some deep and some shallow. They were like many ravines, covering the entire fingers!

Maybe it was because Zi An couldn't stand his grandfather's rough hands that he turned his head around and humphed, "No, no!"

"Oh, grandpa's got a sore pup! "Good, good, good. Don't touch, don't touch!" Du Hejin put his hand down, and laughed, "My baby's skin is fine, Grandfather's hands are too dirty and hard."

Du Ruiqi couldn't help but pull her father's hand.

Du Ruiqi had never looked at his father's hands so carefully before. The moment his entire palm opened, Du Ruiqi saw an even more shocking scene: his father's palm was also mottled with cracks, all of them black, criss-crossing like the lines of communication on a map. So shocking! Then she looked at her other hand. It was exactly the same as the other hand!

"Dad, how did your hand become like this?" Du Ruiqi's tears could no longer hold back and dripped into her palms.
